The Environmental Policy of the United States helps regulate activities that have an impact on our environment by federal government action. This policy helps protect the habitat for future generations and does not interfere with the liberty of the people. President elect Trump should deem this an important public policy to tackle in his upcoming term in office. Republicans typically do not take on environmental policies and put them into action, but I am hopeful he will see the good this can do for the planet.
As the country continues to grow so does the population and the pollution in the air rises. There are many things Trump can go after, but I think he should continue to keep our environment healthy and stable for everyone. According …show more content…
I personally do not feel this is being held to a great standard. On https://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/Look-at-How-Much-Waste-America-Puts-Into-Landfills-Compared-to-Europe, they provide a graph for visual representation of comparisons between the United States and European nations on waste management. The U.S. has the worst record with sixty nine percent of our waste going to landfills; this is not something anyone should consider influential or superb. Austria recycles or composts seventy percent of their waste, while America only does twenty four percent. In other countries, when they put their trash out, if the garbage company sees something in the bag that can be recycled they do not pick it up. This is a valuable task everyone should do, recycling helps the environment more than anyone could imagine. According to ReEnergy Holdings, “Our recycling facilities are creating biomass fuel that can be used at facilities like our renewable energy facilities. Our renewable energy facilities are using biomass fuel to generate electricity for use in the communities we serve.” The United States only uses about seven percent of their garbage to create renewable energy. To some this may not seem pertinent, but in the long run I know I will be thankful for the few who care for the …show more content…
Obama has paved the way for President elect Trump, now all Trump has to do is continue the tradition. Trump is a business man, he has created many buildings in large cities that contribute to global warming. Advancements are a necessity, but some places should be kept the way they were brought up in the world. For instance, the Dakota Access Pipeline in Sioux County, North Dakota has been all over social media with Americans peacefully protesting. The pipeline will enable domestically produced light sweet crude oil from North Dakota to reach major refining markets in a more direct, cost-effective, safer and environmentally responsible manner. Yet it will go through Indian Territory that has been there for thousands of years, this is why I believe some parts of the United States should remain untouched and keep our heritage alive. I think most Americans believe this will be a tough task for Trump to take on, but if Obama leads the way I am hoping we will be
